This paper presents an efficient preconditioning technique in order to couple Partial Element Equivalent Circuit (PEEC) method with Fast Multipole algorithm (FMM).

An intelligent design method of double screen frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) is addressed in this paper. The employed unit cell is composed of two metallic screens, which are printed on both sides of a substrate. The presented non-trial-and-error approach is investigated based on the separate design of each screen. With the help of some physical intuition and an equivalent circuit model, i...

Most textbooks on electric machines present a classical five-element constant impedance equivalent circuit for modeling polyphase induction machines operating under balanced polyphase sinusoidal steady-state conditions. Yet it is known for cage rotor machines that the rotor element impedances vary significantly with rotor j-equency. Research is in progress to determine a better ac equivalent ci...

silicon nanowire (sinw) arrays were produced by electroless method on polycrystalline si substrate, in hf/ agno3 solution. although the monocrystalline silicon wafer is commonly utilized as a perfect substrate, polycrystalline silicon as a low cost substrate was used in this work for photovoltaic applications. in order to study the influence of etching time (which affects the sinws length) on d...

In this work, a newly fabricated organic solar cell based on a composite of fullerene derivative [6,6]-phenyl-C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) and regioregular poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) with an added interfacial layer of AgOx in between the PEDOT:PSS layer and the ITO layer is investigated and an equivalent circuit model is proposed for the device. Incorporation of the AgOx interfacial...
